Hi I’m trying to install mailparse for my php7.4.21 on my linux centos7 server but the documentation is not great and I’m no sysadin.
https://www.php.net/manual/en/mailparse.installation.php states “In order to use these functions you must compile PHP with mailparse support by using the –enable-mailparse configure option”. This is not very helpful but so far I’ve had to do the following:
// To install re2c: > curl http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/Packages/r/re2c-0.14.3-2.el7.x86_64.rpm --output re2c-0.14.3-2.el7.x86_64.rpm > rpm -Uvh re2c-0.14.3-2.el7.x86_64.rpm // I then installed mailparse > pecl install mailparse // I then modified php.ini to add the following: extension=mailparse // I then restarted apache > systemctl restart httpd
But looking at my phpinfo output I cannot see mailparse listed. What do I need to do next?
NOTE: I’m not sure I’ve actually “compiled PHP with mailparse” and I’m not sure how to apply “using the –enable-mailparse configure option”.
Thanks Abe

Answer
so I ended up on https://github.com/php-mime-mail-parser/php-mime-mail-parser/blob/master/README.md that talks about using sudo apt install php-cli php-mailparse for Ubuntu systems, which after a little more effort I found that yum install php-cli php-mailparse was the equivalent for centos (and then restarting apache). This worked.
yum install php-cli php-mailparse systemctl restart httpd
